I'm unaware of how incidents such as yours are handled in Malaysia but in the USA, something like that is a big issue. If you're working for a company, you're typically covered by something called Workmen's Compensation. So if you ever have a work-related injury, the company has to the pay the medical bills. For example, I work as a restaurant manager and for some stupid reason, I cut myself with a knife. It wouldn't stop bleeding even though 2-3 hours passed so I was taken to the hospital. In the end, my employer paid for the medical bill.

Least to say, don't work there anymore.

Hmm it really is different and has much to do where you work or live. Not so easy such problems ...
